I wrote out a check last night and dated it 2002. Stupid years keep changing on me. It is very difficult to keep track of. Plus, I was filling out a form for Meghan's school and I started to write my own name in the student section. So apparently I also think it could be the mid-90s because that was the last time I was any kind of student.

New Years Resolutions are not my thing. They never last anyway. And I would just choose something outrageous and totally out of my control. Like "this year I am going to win millions of dollars". So, instead I'll create a list of things that would be nice to haves, or nice to dos. Kinda like a wish list.

Get dressed before 9 AM on weekdays.

Take kids to Disney World

Try to plan weekly menus before going shopping

Use every last gift card in my wallet before stores/restaurants go kaput.

Get better at managing our money. And, if someone would like to toss a few million dollars our way that would be totally awesome.

There we go, not too scary. And I would like to point out that it is currently 7:35 and I am sitting at the laptop completely dressed in clothes I can leave the house in. So there. Of course I am waiting for groceries to be delivered any minute now. But, it still counts.
